Matching Gift Programs

Many of Camillus House’s supporters may have the chance to multiply the gifts made to our mission. Many businesses have matching gift programs set up to encourage their employees to donate money to charities and public service organizations. Even retired employees are often eligible to participate in their former employer's matching gift programs.

The typical matching gift program is set up so that a company or corporation gives the same amount of money its employee gave to the same charity. Camillus House is eligible for many matching gift programs. To participate, simply:

1. Check with your Human Resources or Matching Gift Department to see if your company has a matching gift program.
2. Fill out an application and send it with your donation to:
   • Camillus House
     Attn: Development Department, MGP
     P.O. Box 011829
     Miami, FL 33101-1829
3. If Camillus House is not offered as a choice in your company’s matching gift program, please take the following information to your matching gifts coordinator. Ask them to consider adding Camillus House as a charitable organization to receive matching funds. They will need the following information:
